Advantages: Small, handy size, good for a few photos, or important data Disadvantages: Low capacity for modern cameras
...CF cards have to be one of the most boring things to write about, and they are all much of a muchness in terms of manufacturing quality and durability, so I'll be brief.
Altec have a good reputation, as far as I am aware, for products like these - and of the dozen or so of the memory cards I have, none have had any problems.
An 8MB card will hold approx 8 hi-res photos from a decent digital camera. This is obviously not a lot, but if you were doing portraits of people, or a few quick shots of certain places, keeping them on distinct cards could have its advantages.
Furthermore, just because you mostly see these being used by cameras, doesn't mean you can't use them for other things. I carry some important data - encryption keys, email address books, and important documents on one. You can use readily available (and cheap) adapters...

Advantages: Fast, Large, Effective Disadvantages: None so far
...I've been into digital photography for a while now (around 6 years) and have seen in grow from the high end being 1.2 MP to what is is today (some in excess of 32 MP).

I recently bought one of Kingston's 2GB flash cards and have been incredibly pleased with my results and experience overall. It is a very fast card and the extra space is a must. I would highly recommend this card....

Advantages: Stylish, Compact, Lightweight Camera Disadvantages: Battery doesnt last very long
...This Camera was a Christmas present from my boyfriend for christmas arent i luckly
The immediate impressions were how the camera is so Stylish compact and lightweight .
The 5.0 mp picture quality is excellent. You can adjust the quality via the easy to use menu screens.
The package included the battery charger and power adapter, camera strap, USB cable for connection to a computer, 2 CD-ROMs for the software and drivers, 32 MBcompactflash card for storing the pictures/video on.
The Memory Card is only 32mb which only holds about 50ish photos, i did purchase a extra memory Card for this.
The tft does make the battery run down quite quick thou, |If buying this Camera i would purchase a extra battery too....

Having bought this card to be used in Canon EOS 20D & 40D digital cameras they are extremely rapid and much better than the lower speed Sandisk Compact Flashes or other makes. The cameras have not as yet had to stop shooting to allow the card to catch up more
Oh God - how do you write a scintillating review about a bit of plastic with a tiny circuit board in it. Well here it goes.
